Update: A Pinterest spokeswoman has confirmed the addition of support for Twitter cards at the beginning of last week.

Enabling Twitter cards allows a service whose content is posted to Twitter to have that content appear in-stream, by tapping a tweet to expand and view photos, videos, or article previews. Instagram used to have this feature, until co-founder Kevin Systrom announced last week that the company would cut support, angering users who will now have one more tab open in their browsers to see photos.

Pinterest is a social network that allows users to post or “pin” images from across the web onto virtual pin boards, like and comment on other pins, and create private boards for sharing and curating information.
